gcreptile 10,939 Posted January 19, 2022 I'm not sure... I mean, he is well past 80. His eyes look like he has thyroid problems. And he does suffer from a myriad of minor issues, and well, cancer, but yeah, he might not be that close to death's door as it might appear. He just looks that way because he's getting old, and has that Pépé face. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCemetaryMan 53 Posted January 20, 2022 Maybe he Is just holding on to see Brazil win one more World Cup. Die a happy man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,939 Posted January 21, 2022 So yeah, in hospital for two days: https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/sports/brazilian-soccer-legend-pele-back-hospital-more-chemotherapy-espn-2022-01-20/ According to info from ESPN, he has cancer in his colon, his liver, and the beginning of a tumour in his lung. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tomarse 84 Posted January 21, 2022 Surprised Covid hasn't finished him off when in hospital. Surely a bout of that would just destroy what immune system he has left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, also the World Cup isn't until November with the final being Mid December. With the way Brazil have been playing in recent years, I can't see them returning with a trophy.

I am not a big fan of Neymar, he was such an embarrassment last World Cup. I remember the embarrassing loss to Germany. Good job FIFA for picking Qatar.

DoorSlammer 542 Posted February 10, 2022 New picture of him: And translation (according to Google Translate): "My friends, I know that there are people looking for news about me. So I send it here. Today I took the day to take care of my look! Since the beginning of the pandemic, my wife has been my favorite hairdresser. Don't you think I'm handsome?"

Yama 57 Posted February 11, 2022 Looks like he's got some kind of make-up on. Also making real effort to look as good as possible to send a positive message to his fans. Probably needed several takes to get the pic looking right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ImNotHades 207 Posted February 12, 2022 His belly doesn't look naturally fatty but instead filled with fluid that was drained. My aunt was being treated (paracentesis) every month because of her liver cancer and her stomach would swell and it would look like that after the treatment. Since he's got cancer that spread I would say he's got time till summer but he's a tough player so he could take this to 2023. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
